Nothern Beef On Southern Tables

The pleashig news has come North that on the bilis of fare ut. sorae Southern hotels "Northern beef" ia specified. If good beef reacbea the hotels there is 110 reason why it should not also reach priva tables iu the South. Shoulft it find its way to these the average physical and intellectual coudition in the south will improve. The southener is naturally a very good fellow, but he rarely learns how to take care of himseli, and as fat pork does not kill him at short notice he is too f'requently willing to makü it his only kind of weat, the resul ts being greatly to his own detri- ment. There is no more hospitable" fellow in the world than the southercer; any wayfarer who does not look like a political tramp is welcome to partake of his hog aud hominy; but the trouble is that wbile the wayfarér is likely to get somethiug better to eat in the course of time the native is not, and as a consequeuce he is gometimes very bilious, suspicious and bellico3e.
